MIKE GOT THE PRESIDENTIAL AWARD FOR ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE

ANDDDDDDDDDDDDdd

A award for being a PUBLISHED AUTHOR!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was 5th grade graduation. I had NO idea this was coming. Neither did HE! About 10 kids in the entire graduating class (95) got awards for academic excellence. There is a letter signed by the president (ok so it is probably a stamp) and a pin as well. Teachers nominated them due to effort as well as grades on tests and such.

His mainstream teacher also did a project with the kids with poetry early in the year and submitted it to be published. Mike was one of 5 kids chosen from his class for that!!!!!

He also got awards for running 50 miles during the year and presidents award for physical fitness. The kid was standing more than he was sitting.

Everything has been so rough on him lately and he often feels he isn't "good" at anything because his behaviors often get in the way and he is not an athlete. He is very in shape and healthy but doesn't have the coordination or cognitive ability for sports.

Anyway, one busting mama here today!
